From Setback to Success

Vincent Dolack came to GST Michigan Works! in Bad Axe on March 6th to register for work and seek new employment.  Vincent is originally from Huron County, and he is a United States Army Veteran.  He was most recently an On-Site Wind Technician Level III stationed in Harbor Beach.  He was very happy to get this position and be able to purchase a house and move back to the area.  Unfortunately, this site was eventually closed.  He was left without a job and with a newly purchased home.  

Vincent signed up for Unemployment Benefits and came into the Huron County office to register for work.  The Career Coaches reviewed his resume and gave him suggestions to make improvements.  He made those improvements and forwarded his resume to Business Services.  They discussed various openings in the area and determined which positions he would like his resume shared with.  Business Services shared his resume, and he was invited for several interviews. Vincent was quickly hired as a Maintenance Technician at Gemini Plastics and began this new chapter in the beginning of April. 

Vincent shared, “…you’ll be happy to know my employment at Gemini is going extremely well. They’ve been impressed with what I have to offer, and I’ve been enjoying my time working and meeting everyone here. I just started my solo shift this week, and I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t intimidating, but I’ve tackled every obstacle thrown my way so far. …fixing machines, I mean, the personnel here are great. Really looking forward to delving into their robotics department. Thank you again for your help and support!”
